2-Day Advanced Course: Primitive Reflex integration – Karen Pryor (Digital Seminar)

2-Day Advanced Course: Primitive Reflex integration – Karen Pryor (Digital Seminar)

Description:

As therapists, when we treat the causes and symptoms of motor delays, we can utilize alternate brain pathways to improve the effects of therapy.

Through neuroplasticity, we have the power to make this happen! It acts as an adaptive mechanism to compensate for lost connection allowing us to maximize remaining function!

From congenital abnormalities (Downs Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Angelman Syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome and more….) to traumatic brain injuries, this course delivers new and exciting ideas on how to detour around damage and incorporate viable nervous system connections.

Dr. Karen Pryor, PT, DPT, will teach you:

• How therapy can change the brain and how neuroplasticity will improve motor skills in a child’s development
• Creative and evidenced-based approaches to incorporate into a multisensory learning experience
• The importance of diverse and novel activities during treatment sessions
• The link between primitive reflexes and development
• How to evaluate the influence of primitive reflexes and effects on the
• CNS developmental stages relating to motor function

Video case studies will demonstrate changes before and after integrative neuroplasticity treatments. The therapy techniques you learn in this course can easily be integrated into the clinic or home the next day, leading to increased developmental success. Purchase today!

• Tremors

HOW TO APPROACH TREATMENTS

• Developmental milestone review
• Sensory motor development
• Vision
• Vision and hearing
• Speech
• Sensation
• Primitive reflex patterns and influence
• Opening the hands for exploration
• Developmental delay and when to go back a step in therapy treatments

A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON THE NERVOUS SYSTEM & GUIDING IT FOR POSITIVE CHANGE

• Lobes next door
• Videos of before and after sensory stimulation combinations
• Why vision is vitally important and how it can be stimulated
• How these concepts can be explained to parents and caregivers
• The brain is clay and how to make a model

THE PRIMARY & SECONDARY RESULTS OF NEUROPLASTICITY TECHNIQUES

• Changing the way the brain connects
• Primitive reflex integration and increased active movements
• The “Team” – patient, therapist, and parent/caregiver
• Sensory stimulation to promote appropriate motor response
• Smooth movements
• Strength is not the same as tone
• Simple activities to present to parents

HOW TO INTEGRATE NEUROPLASTICITY INTO YOUR THERAPY PROGRAM

NLP online course

So what is NLP?
NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Neuro refers to your neurology;
Linguistic refers to language; programming refers to how that neural language functions.
In other words, learning NLP is like learning the language of your own mind!

NLP is the study of excellent communication–both with yourself, and with others.
It was developed by modeling excellent communicators and therapists who got results with their clients.
NLP is a set of tools and techniques, but it is so much more than that.
It is an attitude and a methodology of knowing how to achieve your goals and get results
